2022 offered a challenging operating landscape. Wärtsilä’s order intake decreased at quarterly level, while the company managed to increase its order intake and net sales for the full year. The comparable operating result was depressed by, e.g., depreciation related to Olkiluoto 1 and 2. The demand picture continues to look good, especially on the energy side. There is room for improvement, both in terms of cash flow and profitability. Wärtsilä’s CEO Håkan Agnevall sums up 2022 and looks ahead.
